buttons away

is the theme over on the Tando creative blog for this week and I've created these:-






I have used two large buttons from the grab bag and painted them with distress paint, using the same colour ways I coloured a small butterfly and three flower heads all from the mini range.

I then ran a black pen around the edges and added definition before adding a piece of bling - a brooch pin has been added to the back to make them suitable for jewellery or bag clips.

There are some lovely posts scheduled over on Tando this week so don't forget to pop on over....

where has time gone??

can't believe its a month since I last blogged! where on earth has the time gone?

Last weekend I was here:-


My cousins 17 year old daughter, Lauren, organised a fun day for Gt Ormond Street Hospital - she did really well and organised it all herself with a little  help from her Mum, there was a lovely range of stalls and all the fun of the sideshows...as well as bouncy castles, mini roundabout, train rides for the little ones and a magic show.... she asked me to do a table and I convinced the OH to do some pictures too..... a big Thank You to Janina for the loan of the card display stands - fab idea to display all those cards... and for the extra cards.

so, as you can see I have been really busy making loads of cards, boxed sets, keyrings, tags and so forth and this week has been catching up on all those jobs that got left behind due to crafting!!! lol

Back to normality now....so, a normal crafty post due tomorrow xx
